The Nintendo 3DS is the fifth handheld video game console developed by Nintendo (tenth if the various iterations of the Game Boy, the Game Boy Advance, and the Nintendo DS are considered). The 3DS is essentially the DS with much more powerful hardware, comparable to that of the Wii. The handheld's most unique feature is its autostereoscopic screen—stereoscopic 3D can be viewed on the top screen without the use of special glasses.
